Turtle Chocolate Poke Cake: A Decadent Treat You’ll Love

If you’re craving a dessert that combines rich chocolate, gooey caramel, crunchy pecans, and silky chocolate glaze, the Turtle Chocolate Poke Cake is your ultimate solution. This cake is a fun twist on the classic poke cake, where holes are poked into a warm cake and filled with luscious sauces, creating pockets of flavor in every bite. Here’s how to make it step by step.

Ingredients

For the Chocolate Cake:

• 1 box of chocolate cake mix (or homemade chocolate cake)
• Ingredients listed on the box (usually eggs, oil, water)

For the Filling:

• 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

For the Frosting and Topping:

• 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Extra chopped pecans for garnish
• Optional: whipped cream for serving

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Bake the Chocolate Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare the chocolate cake mix according to package instructions or use your favorite homemade recipe.
3. Pour the batter into a 9×13-inch greased baking dish.
4. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Allow the cake to cool slightly, about 10–15 minutes.

Tip: Slightly warm cake makes it easier to poke holes without cracking.

Step 2: Poke the Cake

1. Using the handle of a wooden spoon or a skewer, poke holes all over the surface of the cake, about 1–2 inches apart.
2. Make sure the holes are deep enough to reach near the bottom of the cake. These pockets will hold the caramel filling.

Step 3: Fill the Holes

1. Pour the caramel sauce evenly over the cake, letting it seep into the holes.
2. Sprinkle chopped pecans over the caramel for that classic Turtle crunch.
3. Add chocolate chips on top, which will melt slightly and blend with the caramel during the next step.
